Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

Well, I just wanted to wish all my loyal readers a very merry Christmas! I know it's kinda late in the day (especially since I'm the farthest out in the time zone and last to have reached Christmas). I guess I can tell everyone how my Christmas went:

It was actually rather a great one for not being at home surrounded by family. I do miss my family at this time so I was worried about not having Christmas, but Paul made it wonderful! What he got me was an iPod and a digital picture frame! I'm so excited!!! I'm going to set it up as soon as I can and get pictures of my friends and family and not be so home sick. He also got me a 2GB memory card to put in there so it will have LOTS of pictures!

What I got Paul was a charging valet for his night stand, Kung Fu Panda, Dark Knight, and lots of stocking stuffers. Each came with a coupon saying what it was good for (like cuddles and cocoa and kisses etc). It was great. I also got myself some scrap booking things for my stocking (because I needed stuff to make Paul's coupons with!). Soon I'll be heading over to Paul's parent's house for Christmas dinner and more gift swapping.

Paul and his family have made me feel very welcome this Christmas. This morning we went over to a friend of the families and had breakfast. Don makes wonderful cinnamon rolls (he's quite the bake and Paul's dad for those that hadn't guessed). And while all the older adults talked I played Rockband 2 with Adam, Jim, and Paul (who wouldn't sing. The gooberhead!).

I hope everyone else had a great Christmas and that the New Year proves to be one of amazement and wonder! Tune in next time for another update of life in Washington!

I'm glad you are being taken care of. Sounds like you are having tons of fun. As stubborn as I was at first, I'm actually glad you have Paul. I'm also glad he takes care of you. Very glad, in fact. About the not singing, keep pestering him and perhaps he may oneday pick up the mic. Be safe in all that snow!

Lucky duck! Sounds like you had a great Christmas! Mine was spent teaching. And then we went to McDonald's. Woo!
